"MAGA Trash in Chicago attacked Jussie Smollett and broke his rib (swipe)"

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/empire-star-jussie-smollett-attacked-rope-put-around-neck-suspected-hate-crime-175325540.html

Chicago P.D. is investigating a brutal attack on Empire star Jussie Smollett. The 36-year-old actor and singer was jumped by two white men late Monday. It is being treated as a possible hate crime.

“Overnight, the Chicago Police Department received a report of a possible racially-charged assault and battery involving a cast member of the television show Empire,” police confirmed to Yahoo. “Given the severity of the allegations, we are taking this investigation very seriously and treating it as a possible hate crime. Detectives are currently working to gather video, identify potential witnesses and establish an investigative timeline. The victim is fully cooperating with investigators and we ask anyone with information about this incident to contact Area Central Detectives at 312-747-8382.”

If anyone has information and wishes to report it anonymously, they can do so here.

TMZ has disturbing details of the altercation. After arriving home in Chicago from New York, Smollett was hungry and went to a Subway around 2 A.M. As he was leaving, one of the men purportedly yelled, “Aren’t you that f***ot Empire n***er?”

The two white men were apparently wearing ski masks and attacked Smollett, who tried to fight back. They put a rope around his neck, poured bleach on him and as they left allegedly yelled, “This is MAGA country.” The Fox star was treated for a fractured rib at Northwestern Memorial and discharged Tuesday.

Chicago P.D. confirms to Yahoo the two unknown offenders approached Smollett “and gained his attention by yelling out racial and homophobic slurs towards him. The offenders began to batter the victim with their hands about the face and poured an unknown chemical substance on the victim.”

Police also confirm one of the offenders wrapped a rope around Smollett’s neck. The actor is now in “good condition.” Yahoo has not independently confirmed whether the MAGA quote was yelled.

It appears the attack might have been premeditated. According to photos obtained by the blog ThatGrapeJuice.Net, Smollett received a threatening note eight days ago. It was addressed to Fox Studios in Chicago with cut out letters spelling, “You will die black f**.”

Yahoo reached out to a representative for Smollett but did not immediately receive a response.

On Empire, the actor plays Jamal Lyon, the son of Lucious (Terrence Howard) and Cookie (Taraji P. Henson) who is gay. In an interview with Ellen DeGeneres in 2015, Smollett said that while he identifies as being gay, he prefers to keep his personal life private.

“It was really important to me to make sure that it got across that there is no closet,” Smollett explained. “But I have a home and that is my responsibility to protect that home.”

He continued, “So that’s why I choose not to talk about my personal life. But there is without a doubt, no closet that I’ve ever been in, and I just wanted to make that clear. But it was most important for me to make that clear to you on your show at this time in the world. And that’s where I’m at.”

Well-wishes are pouring in for the beloved entertainer. GLAAD reached out to both Fox and Smollett’s team offering support.

Andy Cohen called the attack “vile.”

In response to Reply # 0


          

Put a rope around his neck? For why? Dramatic effect?
Poured an unknown chemical on him? For why?
Zodiac killer note sent before hand.

"This is MAGA country"
“Aren’t you that f***ot Empire n***er?”
Who talks like that?


This sounds like a script to an episode I must have missed.

In response to Reply # 12


  

          

The language, the noose, the bleach, it was an Arctically cold Chicago night (2AM, no less).

Jussie has always seemed really intelligent and a like a good person, so I really "want" this to be as true as it's being initially reported because I don't want to believe that he would be a party to a hoax. That's why I'm choosing to go with the idea that whoever did this knew him, or they were sent by someone who knew him.

i edited cuz i thought maybe i was being too skeptical/insensitive.

but the story just doesnt sound right imo. looks like others are feeling the same way.

skimasked magabots in the middle of chicago call you a n*gger f*ggot and beat you up then throw a noose around your neck and ran?

i would be happy to be wrong.

seeing everyone rallying to his defense...i would be even more happy to be wrong. i hope the story doesnt fall apart and it turns into another 'gotcha/ha ha' moment from the usual suspects.

In response to Reply # 32


          

after he received the threatening letter.

The show hired security for the whole cast after the initial threat.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it was “security” or someone linked to the security he refused. I can’t see how folks would wait around all night in frigid temps and a random subway run just so happened to work out on their favor.

The radio host was calling out street thugs and gangs in Chicago or not stepping up to protect dude but what thug is out in Antarctic wind chill type weather looking for justice?

White people don't watch Empire, well maybe the ones that like Rap music. But yeah, the average white guy wouldn't even know who Jussie is.

I'm guessing these were the PO-PO who lost money by not getting the 'security job'.

Alot of guys who moonlight as "security" are CHICAGO COPS.

MAGA country? No civilian would ever say that. Trump is really hated in Chicago. Even the city council tried to pass an ordinance to remove his name from Trump Tower.

The only Trump supporters in the city are police (and they'll tell you straight up).


>after he received the threatening letter.

>I wouldn’t be surprised if it was “security” or someone
linked to the security he refused.

In response to Reply # 51


  

          

Like he and his manager just remembered they were on the phone? And then refusing to hand over phone records to show they were on the phone. Wouldn't that help police determine the exact timing of the event as well which would help find footage etc. Like what if the image they just released of two potential suspects doesn't match up with the time stamp he and his manager were supposedly on the phone. So weird. Hopefully the info out there about them not wanting to give out that info is false

Sad to hear about Jesse getting attacked and it's just fucked up it was in his own side of town, tells you even when you think you feel safe in a familiar place, you still shouldn't let your guard down all the time.

the police appear to be treating this like a hate crime. I think if the story was bullshit it would take not that long to discredit right? Just check out his credit card receipts.

It is interesting he won't share his phone with police though.

I also thought it interesting that he went straight to the hospital.

In response to Reply # 76


  

          

Seems like its power to disseminate harmful information among a target audience is unmatched.

FB has been utilized by the Russians too but with Facebook there's less anonymity and more restrictions to who sees what

Chatrooms / reddit are less viral

but they dont put a lot of measures in place because it angers conservatives (who share most of it and benefit from the parallel reality).

this is why conservatives constantly invent claims of bias. working the refs has its advantages.

who likely can't read, literally gets his information from Fox News and announced his presidency calling Mexicans rapists


our entire reality jumped the shark a long time ago. And yeah, we've seen his supporters get violent on camera many times.



So what's so hard to believe that a gay black man in America was targeted? Because their threats were "too on the nose"?

We seen these stereotypical trump people everyday with seemingly no self awareness to how evil they are; none of this shit should be that unbelievable

now they have footage of homie before and after the attack with the suspects across the street from him


so, considering the FBI seems to be taking this seriously and the disinformation campaign to discredit this thing like he was just beat up in a gay club; it looks like this shit happened as reported and actually does fit perfectly in our current surreal reality where we've seen more than enough MAGA people kill/run people over and send bombs out but everyone is still like "this shit don't sound real" for some dumb reason.

there are still some pretty big gaps in the story, outside of what transpired at a Subway.

It might very well be rando MAGA-racists. That said, I'm still like where they get bleach and rope? Do they just roll with that stuff? Did they plan and target the attack? Did they know him prior, or were they just secret racist Empire fans? My confusion more lies on the attacker's side.

Then again - 'What's the frequency, Kenneth?' Shit doesn't have to make sense.

is that he was targeted with death threats in hate mail sent to fox studios in chicago. to the point that they wanted to give him extra security (but he declined).

so as crazy as it looks...its not as crazy if it was premeditated by individuals committed enough to send him death threats beforehand.

In response to Reply # 75


  

          


1. The article does not confirm that it happened as reported, it just states dude came home beat up with a noose around his neck.

2. Also does not say "suspects" were caught on tape. It says "persons of interest". The term can mean suspects and witnesses.

I dont put a lot of stock in folks tweeting about seeing him in the club, but i do read the police statements carefully and they are wording it very carefully. Their was so much blow back from the use of the word "possibly" a hate crime, but it is probably because they have doubts about the story.

In response to Reply # 72


          

People don't randomly have bleach and rope on them so that and the threatening letters would suggest this was a pre-meditated attack.

Additionally, to catch Smollett in the streets like that also suggests they either knew where he frequented or were following him that night.

To me, that's alot of investment to attack someone that isn't particularly known for his activism and, I'd think, wouldn't be that symbolic a target.

Did some racist domestic terrorists decide that attacking a member of the "Empire" cast would send some terrifying message to black people in America? Possibly... but it's getting into the realm of being stranger than fiction.

It would be more believable if he'd just randomly been jumped or if he were on a Colin Kapernick level of activism.

In response to Reply # 0


          

https://www.tmz.com/2019/01/31/jussie-smollett-neighbor-suspicious-redneck-rope-attack-chicago/

video from his apt complex confirms he had a rope around his neck as he walked through the lobby.

if you were gonna make up something like that...it seems like you would be more likely to do it once you got back to your place. not on your way there.

add this to the neighbor who stated she saw two suspicious men around the complex...one potentially with a rope hanging from under his shirt.

and the death threats.

im still kinda skeptical but im leaning more and more toward his version of events.

i pray to God dude didnt make this up cuz he got damn near the entire country (except the youknowwhos) coming to his defense.

https://www.tmz.com/2019/02/01/jussie-smollett-refuse-phone-cell-records-maga-rope-attack-chicago/

he cleared up the detail about the phone records...saying police requested access to his actual phone and he was uncomfortable with that. he is working on giving them the phone records soon tho.

also he says he kept the rope around his neck to preserve the evidence.

this seems like a good sign. i assume if the story was fufu then he would prolly start showing cracks and backing away from it...given all of the public attention/pressure.

because from the start I thought that the weirdness about it was that what I'm hearing from tmz or whoever they talked to is describing weird things weirdly.

so much of it is sources or rumors or whatever, the small details that have come directly from him seem fairly consistent

https://twitter.com/JussieSmollett/status/1087036824042856448

he made a tweet praising aoc and singling out trump supporters on 1/20.

he received a death threat at fox studios in chicago on either 1/22 or 1/23.
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DyHrgz6VsAAMOHX.jpg

he was attacked on 1/29.

really quick turnaround from tweet to mail delivery. but since the attack took place right near his crib in chicago...theres a good chance they lived near there too.

the mail itself is completely consistent with the deluge of hate that journalists, activists, celebs, etc have received when they criticized trump, magabots, etc.

if you follow a lot of them on twitter...they are constantly posting the emails, letters, etc.

by now.

flipping back towards leaning towards thinking it's true.

What's interesting about this story and the Justin Fairfax story is there is this new social media pressure to declare your side from the moment you here about a story ike this.

Look at this huffpost article:

https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/virginia-democrats-justin-fairfax-sexual-assault-allegation_us_5c59eec1e4b00187b555c4b2

reporters seem taken aback that Dem law makers are taking the approach of they want to wait and see before making a decision about his guilt or innocence.

Interesting times.

http://thesource.com/2019/02/08/chicago-pd-intend-to-charge-jussie-smollett-if-a-false-report-was-filed/

Oh, what a tangled web we weave…

Jussie Smollett is in the hot seat after there have been several reports that the openly gay actor may have possibly filed a false report to police. If that’s the case, the Chicago Police Department promises to charge Smollett for making a false police report in regards to the alleged hate crime perpetrated against him on January 29th.

The investigation is still ongoing, but with the Empire actor refusing to hand his phone over to authorities, the 36-year old actor will have a hard time proving his case and avoiding jail time as his alleged assailants have managed to do.

In the meantime, Chicago PD Superintendent Eddie Johnson vehemently states on social media that if Smollett is found to not be telling the truth he will be charged.

Joe is right and this whole situation is peculiar. Why did he call the cross dressing director and his manager? I find it highly suspicious no video of the attack exists.

Now people around the country express skepticism at MAGA hate crimes because this alleged hate crime victim could be lying to police. He comes across as one of these intersectionality mfers that piss me off...

Particularly the concern trolling at the end about "now when people are really assaulted, they'll have a reason to think it's fake."

After you just did the same thing based on a bunch of speculation. and like that's not already a mainstream conservative talking point.

Really, ought to go in the Archives based on that alone.

There would be all sorts of leaked photos and messages soon after. Fuck around and find a photo of weed and use that to charge him.

Whatever evidence is on his phone he can provide to his lawyer so that person can forward it to the cops.

https://wgntv.com/2019/02/14/chicago-police-questioning-persons-of-interest-in-alleged-attack-on-jussie-smollett/

IF Jussie redacted these folks' call records, and the police independently obtained his phone data (trivial for police to do), they can then see what towers those phones hit that night (also trivial). He would have basically highlighted these numbers for the police, if that's what happened.

My view: He lied and the cops know everything.

if you scroll up...this comes after a day where the 2 men were picked up from the airport and questioned by police while their homes were being raided.

so basically...the sources are prolly the police and the 2 men revealed everything.

160. "They've arrested 2 people...Nigerian brothers. Wait...what? (swipe)"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          


https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/la-et-mg-jussie-smollett-suspect-arrests-20190215-story.html

Chicago police say they have arrested two brothers in connection with the possible hate crime involving “Empire” star Jussie Smollett.

“Interrogations will resume today with the two individuals and their attorney,” department spokesman Anthony Guglielimi said in a statement to The Times on Friday.

The men — who are only being identified as two Nigerian brothers — were initially being questioned as persons of interest in the attack and are now considered potential suspects, Guglielimi said.

“Detectives have probable cause that they may have been involved in an alleged crime and we are working to corroborate the allegations and investigative timeline as our investigation continues,” Guglielimi said. But they have not been charged in the Jan. 29 incident.

Guglielmi again denied reports alleging that the attack was a hoax and reiterated that Smollett is being treated as a victim.

“While we haven’t found any video documenting the alleged attack, there is no evidence to say that this is a hoax,” Guglielmi said. “The alleged victim is being cooperative at this time and continues to be treated as a victim, not a suspect.”

Police have been questioning the men since they were picked up by officers at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport on Wednesday after returning to the city from Nigeria, the Associated Press reported. Police served a search warrant at their home on Thursday.

At least one of the men worked on “Empire,” but Guglielmi did not know in what capacity, the AP said.

Smollett recounted his ordeal on “Good Morning America” on Thursday and again said that his attackers yelled racial and homophobic slurs at him, put a rope around his neck and poured a chemical on him.

He also said an image Chicago police released showing persons of interest did indeed show his attackers.

“I don’t have any doubt in my mind that that’s them,” Smollett said. “Never did.”

The musician, an openly gay LGBTQ advocate who plays an openly gay musician on the Fox musical drama, said he spoke up because “people need to hear the truth.”

“Everybody has their own idea. Some are healing and some are hurtful, but I just want young people, young members of the LGBTQ community, young, black children, to know how strong that they are,” he said.

Representatives for Smollett did not immediately respond to The Times’ request for comment on Friday.

aka same lawyer from Michael Cohen's defense team, while Chicago PD releases the two suspects without charges:

https://twitter.com/RaferWeigel/status/1096589512568844288

"High-profile Chicago defense attorney Michael Monico let it be known he was representing Jussie Smollett on RoeConn radio show today. Monico also represents Michael Cohen. He's considered one of the best defense lawyers in the country."

https://twitter.com/RaferWeigel/status/1096612477142413312

"Chicago Police Department say no charges for 2 POI in Jussie Smollett . PD says it’s because of "new evidence" they learned in interrogations. The 2 men have been released after 48 hours in custody and were not charged."

The outpouring of initial support doesnt see wrong. But remember the outrage about the initial headlings which said "possible" hate crime? There were lots of people indignant at people being skeptical about the story.

What do those people say now? I'm guessing they will be silent and maybe delete post rather than say, yeah my bad.

These are weird times and we haven't quite figured out how to navigate them.

https://www-m.cnn.com/2019/02/16/entertainment/jussie-smollett-attack/index.html?r=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnn.com%2F

Chicago (CNN) — Two law enforcement sources with knowledge of the investigation told CNN that Chicago Police believe Jussie Smollett paid two men to orchestrate the assault.
The brothers, who were arrested Wednesday, were released without charges Friday after Chicago police cited the discovery of "new evidence." The sources told CNN that the two men are now cooperating fully with law enforcement.
Smollett told authorities he was attacked early January 29 by two men who were "yelling out racial and homophobic slurs." He said one attacker put a rope around his neck and poured an unknown chemical substance on him.
The sources told CNN that there are records that show the two brothers purchased the rope found around Smollett's neck at an Ace Hardware store in Chicago.
Smollett gave his first detailed account of what he says was a hate crime against him, and the aftermath, in an interview with "Good Morning America" that aired Thursday. During the interview he expressed frustration at not being believed.
"It feels like if I had said it was a Muslim or a Mexican or someone black I feel like the doubters would have supported me a lot much more," Smollett said. "And that says a lot about the place where we are as a country right now."
CNN's attempts to reach both Smollett's representative and attorney Saturday were unsuccessful.

All this does is give fodder to the existing racists and homophobes. And like you mentioned, the potential gains were so minimal. The risks far outweighed the potential "rewards".

In response to Reply # 0


          

Why would he say white when clearly they are black?

Did he search for a place with zero cameras before tying the rope around and having one of them lightly scratch him?

I do get them going to Nigeria as I imagine that was their payment and plus they get to see family but if he meant to send them away so they were never found how did he fuck that up?

At least the redacted phone records and not immediately turning over his phone makes sense as I’m sure he had some damming texts or calls on there.

I don’t get why he would do this it ain’t like he didn’t alredy have a good amount of fame and was on the covers of magazines and recognized as a gay hero.

219. "They Should Just Make Him Disappear"
In response to Reply # 193


  

          

...then the show should be put to rest.

I was already getting tired of the show, and I was kind of rooting for his character Jamal to get things right with his family & boyfriend, and finally put that damn album out that he owes; but after all this fake attack shit aka publicity stunt, his career is over like O.J..

They should just write him out without even making it a big situation, just let him finish up his contract, give smallest camera time as possible, then just let him either disappear or go on a trip to the UK with a note saying bye fam I'm out; and write the story like the family don't give a fuck about him being gone, on some Lil Jon saying "BYE NIGGA" type steeze.

All of the facts seem like a throw away plot for his show.

Trekking many waterfront blocks alone--except for that hawk that was out--to a 24 hour Subway for dinner...after arriving in town from a cross country flight, well past midnight.

Perps conveniently wearing MAGA ballcaps,in the cold instead of skullcaps, who also happen to be carrying bleach...and noose...and he bravely got away.

Sounded immediately to me like a lie my little brother would tell around the time he first got locked up.

Fox News, MAGAites, & the rest of 😈ish-❄️s are about to eat this up, and use it to distract completely from their King's fall.

Look at the fake tears and false bravado. https://youtu.be/QGNWLo4OA3I?t=34
I feel bad for all the respected folk who had his back, and the validity of their legitimacy.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

I shouldn't be shocked and surprised but damn homie. You went out and made up some dumb shsit for attention.

For those with a legal background help a brother out. I seem to remember a general rule of thumb-basically whatever crime that you falsely allege, you are subject to that same penalty. Each state is different so...


A quick look at the Illinois code shows he committed a class 4 felony. That could land him with fines and up to 3 years. Of course a good defense attorney will get it knocked down but I wonder will he get time like Pac? He claims he is the gay Pac so..

Illinois code:

(720 ILCS 5/26-1)Sec. 26-1. Disorderly conduct.-->(4) false report = class 4 felony.

(730 ILCS 5/5-4.5-45)For a Class 4 felony:The sentence of imprisonment shall be a determinate sentence of not less than one year and not more than 3 years.

In response to Reply # 0
Sat Feb-16-19 11:59 PM by Stringer Bell

          

If this were a real hate crime, wouldn’t it be correct to say that the perpetrators victimized not just Jussie, but the entire gay and black communities, essentially terrorizing them?

If so, it would seem to me that Jussie owes the members of those communities an apology, as his ruse, in order to be successful, depended on successfully wreaking that same terror among those marginalized groups.

It’s really fucking foul.

he is a sleeper agent activated by U.N.C.L.E Tom, a shadow organization that uses C-list celebrities to wage war on Black People. In the past they've used Flava Flav, Jimmy "JJ" Walker (see: Operation DYN-O-MITE) and Cyrus from the Real World Boston.

This has their fingerprints all over it.

Last time he was even brought up was Ashley Todd because of the backwards B (why didn't she just carve an "O" again?).

They're a very exclusive group. Outside of a reality show of false accusers living in the same house I dont see much career wise for this kid

No matter what side someone is on, we are in a point in society that we would rather believe first because letting it be known to otbers that we support makes us feeel better. Its like we forget we can be sketpical, logical, and still support and hold our beliefs at the same time.

In response to Reply # 226


          

we SHOULD give people the benefit of the doubt when they say they have been vicitimized in some way...because ultimately, the Tawanas and Ashleys and Jussies are OUTLIERS. The overwhelming majority of poeple with the courage to report being attacked have actually been attacked and shouldn't have to be retraumatized by folks projecting their own doubts onto them.

But ultimately, the cost of the liars is extremely high. Now, even more real victims will keep quiet for fear of not being believed. This is why it breaks my heart so much if he lied like this...

or purposely brush off details that don't seem to make much sense. Especially when as you said this comes at a cost.

I think most skeptics, at least in this post wanted to believe he was telling the truth, and wanted more clarification on some of the details that sounded off.

253. "nah I think there were a significant number of people"
In response to Reply # 251


          

who were invested in it not being true, as much as there were people emotionally invested in supporting his claim.

how do I know? I was skeptical of the story. I am also not an investigator assigned to it, so I shut the fuck up and waited for more evidence to come in.

no one attacked me for waiting.

people in this thread have clear agendas, and they're mostly looking to extrapolate one instance to cover all others, while pretending like they haven't done the same shit (fake concern about needing to know THE TRUTH) over and over for years

But it's cool...and kinda expected.

No need for some lengthy "insult-laden" reply either...you made your point.

Keep you (when, in that case, when I said "we" and "us", I wasn't talking to or about you...so "YOU" jumped into some shit that didn't pertain to "YOU") out of collective statements.

...hmph...I guess "YOU" should keep yourself out if they don't pertain to "YOU" then, right?

So mind "YOUR" business..

In response to Reply # 223


          

part of me is holding out hope that lying ass CPD are somehow still behind this

but if Jussie lied, i just wish he would say so now and not dig his heels in by lawyering up

this is so tragic on multiple levels.

its almost like which is worse? him actually being attacked (personal trauma) or him lying about being attacked (collective trauma)...both scenarios are fukked up...but the lie hurts so many of us...

*sigh*

271. "I don’t think it’s that serious, he’s just stupid. "
In response to Reply # 270
Mon Feb-18-19 11:02 PM by lightworks

          

Like people are saying he might be mentally unstable now or a sociopath and I’m just like “No he’s just really stupid”.

The brothers doing it I get hell they need money because they are actors/boxers/personal trainers and I’m sure Jussie assured them they wouldn’t get caught.

He probably thought going out for food would make sense, it would be caught on camera, and he could be a symbol of Trump’s America....

The brothers wouldn’t get caught because by the time they came back the firestorm would have calmed down, and then everyone wins.

Obviously he shouldn’t have done it. He had a great life and career and now him and his sister will forever get questions about why he did it.

But this idea that he’s crazy is wild to me.

He’s just dumb. Didn’t realize people would find it weird someone recognized him at 2am in bitter cold.

Didn’t realize people screaming MAGA COUNTRY in downtown Chicago doesn’t make sense.

Finally he’s too dumb to hire white actors and it’s wild he thought having them dress in head to toe black would make it so people didn’t realize they weren’t black wtf

Finally LOL at the robin interview I have no idea why he thought doubling down would work. He shoulda just taken the L and said out of respect for more serious crimes I won’t be speaking publicly about this.

Also I wonder if Frank insisting he call cops fucked up his plan. Maybe he thought a little publicity and that’s all that was needed would be fine and this snowballed.

like I don't want worst case scenario to unfold and this dude ends up suicidal and that's unfortunately the only way conservative media won't be dancing all over this. Still slight hope the police are also MAGAs and doing their best to pin it on an innocent black man cuz lying about all this is stranger than season 5 of The Wire.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Police caught the Nigerians responsible for the "attack". They found bleach and red hats but released them without charges, allegedly. Meanwhile Jussie got a legal team far above his salary from empire.

Pro lgbt policy was attached to anti-lynching legislation at the last second and passed with the aid of media attention from this farce?

Does the white lgbt community attach themselves to other racial communities with the same fervor as the black community? Does the happen to the Jewish, Asian, or Hispanic communities?

I'm damn tired of them exploiting any beneficial policy towards us and simultaneously labeling us as collectively homophobic. This the same community that mocks us repeatedly... *EDIT*

You mascot LGBTQIA black Americans need to wake up and stop championing this bullshit. Jussie faked a hate crime with the end result his reputation tarnished and pro white lgbt policy passed. I got a Murda Mook 45 minute round for any of you black Americans on here supporting Jussie that want smoke.

because this could be a smear campaign, it makes a lot of people
look bad. why is so much law enforcement investigating this thing?
it's made, apparently, world headlines and no one knew who jussie was
before this happened, now he's in the spotlight with this narrative.

thinking this could look bad if it turns out the other way.

I see folks complaining about people like Haley Barbar chiming in now to say he should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law if he is lying and see thats the flip side to the same coin.

Maybe all those people who are far removed from it should sit back on the sidelines and wait to see what happens.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

I didn't believe it when i heard it initially...but wasn't particularly vocal about it bc i went from
"wow, that sucks" after reading/hearing the headline to "wait a minute, wtf" after hearing many of the details

i also knew i couldn't really trust every leak and story bc this is the CPD and the media and a powder keg of a clusterfuck

but the details, his interview, and other things definitely only casted more doubt

ideally...people would reserve publicly questioning and/or supporting without caution but that's clearly not the world we live in where kneejerk outrage, social media sleuths, blind support, hashtag #teamUs divisiveness, and rampant performative wokeness and virtue signalling is the norm...being "right" is more important than the truth

everyone just seems stuck in thinking it's "them" rather than "us" that can't seem to get shit right

284. "i think the lesson is...people are trash"
In response to Reply # 283


  

          

which interestingly enough would've been the lesson if this was real too.

I also think it's fair to question just about anything you see/hear/read nowadays...or at least reserve judgement until further details are shared.

286. "at this point"
In response to Reply # 284


          

i really don't want to hear about any of this garbage anymore, it's
very toxic and no one is being held accountable for it.

287. "Not sure"
In response to Reply # 283


  

          

The details did sound a little on the nose and "too perfect," but I would've thought the same thing if you had told me a bunch of fascists were holding a tiki torch rally at a Confederate statue chanting "Jews will not replace us." Like, a TV show would've been told to turn that down because it's not subtle enough.

There's probably something to be said for waiting for the facts to come in, but that's also something that's become co-opted over the years. How many times do you see a story about a victim of police violence with a dozen Serious Whites in the comments saying that "we need to wait for ALL sides of this story to come out," when what they mean is they want a reason to dismiss this as invalid (which will happen anyway, because by definition, the police can never be wrong in that situation.)

I guess if something sounds too perfect to be true, it probably is, unless it's not? I don't know what lesson to take from this that can't immediately be twisted for some other shitty purpose.

I don't think anyone was wrong for showing support when the word came out.

I don't think anyone was wrong for voicing their skepticism when it surfaced but I do more strongly feel like, what's really to gain by being the first to say, "this sounds fishy" rather than be quiet.

I think the worst are the folks who drew battlelines on day one and were heavy on trying to call people out.



Like this cat framed being silent on the case was tantamount to homophobia.

https://www.vibe.com/2019/01/straight-black-mens-silence-jussie-smolletts-dangerous

I mean there are lots of good points in the article but the whole article would have fallen apart if he acknowledged that some people might be silent because the story sounded like bullshit.

It's like there is competitive wokeness rushing to be "first".

293. "it's the performative part of the support"
In response to Reply # 288


  

          

being supportive of a potential victim is pretty much generic "thoughts and prayers"...a lot of the support for this seemed a lot like "look at this supporting evidence i don't need to feel right about what i believe or to affirm my identity" which is why some people acted like silence was opposition

it just feels like we are still trying to prove some shit to folks who either already agree with us or never will

i was immediately skeptical but it was like a real life episode of the masked singer for some folks lol

the story is perfect for our environment though...information culture warfare

301. "the story seemed bizarre from day one"
In response to Reply # 288


          

but it also seemed clear that from what he claimed happened -- that he was attacked outside by two men

that whatever happened would eventually become clear. I don't think that's happened yet, but I think it's impossible to hide completely no matter what the truth is, so I can wait.


I don't want anyone who is a victim of a racist attack to feel uncomfortable about revealing that, and publicly doubting the accusation before we knew more would make that happen, so I didn't do it.

I was never attacked by anyone for not saying anything publicly about it.

In response to Reply # 289


  

          

they don't have to eat crow unless they were actively shitting on folks who didn't lol

if you believed him...and he lied...he'd be the one eating crow not the believer...they only have any accountability if they stood in the face of reasonable skepticism and still didn't exercise some critical thinking or caution

So what, a few self righteous folk gonna try and shame you but it’s a message board...

... that dude just seems perpetually fucking angry, aggressive, on the offensive ... I guess that's his shtick or some shit, pretty obnoxious; so I refrained.

But yea I'm with you. It's a message board. The whole purpose of said message board is to kill time, bullshit, spew your opinions and bounce ideas and thoughts off eachother. So long as folks are willing to (semi)humbly accept an L if they ultimately turn out to be loud and wrong who gives a flying fuck.

It's a message board, for fuck's sake. We're not journalists.

In response to Reply # 298


          

I would not have respected you or your opinion, and the interaction would have been negative.

sitting back and shutting the fuck up was the right choice and I'm glad you came to it on your own without me telling you. it's enabled our current agreement on your decision-making skills and could forge a shared understanding in the future.

In response to Reply # 285


  

          

I think I tweeted an Ashley Todd pic but I have like 8 Twitter followers.
and i had a couple conversations in person with people who were even more skeptical.

But I def didn't jump in to angry, crowded fb posts by friends. One because fb debates are too much of a time suck, and two because the skeptics that did jump in, and mostly just to say let's wait for more facts were getting fucking pummeled

because I didn't know, and I wasn't invested either way.
but also partially because 'let's proceed with caution here' comments were met with the same kind of hostility as flat out calling him a liar.

315. "it's a situation where more than one thing can be true at once"
In response to Reply # 312


          

there have been people, who support the president, who've executed violent attacks against people who are black and/or gay, etc.

and

the story was super sketchy and hard to understand/believe and not even told firsthand for quite some time.

but you're never going to thread that needle in the moment.

In response to Reply # 285


  

          

On facebook and twitter where I use my real name and have friends and associates who are activist and more strident, and who were getting worked up over the use of the word "possible" hate crime, it probably would have lead to an argument that I wasn't that invested in to have. Easier to not say ish and just talk shit about it on the text chain with my boys.

I wouldn’t go on a platform where I have built equity and risk it all for this story.

wait... Well, I would... I don’t give a shit about those folks but I feel you.

on social media. If those are the people you'd like to float your "here's why they're lying/trying to ruin an innocent man/bringing down my favorite athlete" hot takes in front of, more power to you, but don't be surprised if those people think you're an asshole or decide they can't trust you because of it.

and not really as impactful to their day to day lives so they shrug at the hot takes.

If friends are cancelling people over their opinions of athletes and celebrities they got serious issues.

unless you're a loser who always jumps on the I'M SKEPTICALLLLLL bandwagon whenever the accuser is someone who they don't like.

if you were skeptical of the story, unless people were about to Liam Neeson this and try to round up people inretribution, then there's no reason not to wait for more info.


unless you're a massive piece of shit.

Cool story bro. Keep holding on to this "I was silent because i need to hear more before making judgement" is any different than us being vocal about his story so we couldnt have a conclusion yet of neither riding with him or not. YOU just were too afraid or something else was holding you back from not looking like you were supporting a victim. Don't project your insecurities on us. Just cause you didn't say shit about your reservations doesn't make you better LOL Again you are a fucking loser and you keep showing us, Seems like you are the only one with the agenda trying to come off as someone who always rides for the victim....Guess what we all do buddy. But we are grown ups who just don't blindly believe what everyone says because it aligns with our moral values.

Normally I would be like “Eh 2007 is such a long time ago, this isn’t relevant anymore” but since he brought all this on himself I say yes every single thing that helps prove he lied in 2019 is okay by me.

He’s a fucking idiot.

I've run out of my free articles for the month. Baltimore Sun only gives four for the month. So, I'm posting this here to come back to it later or in case anyone wants to copy/paste.

Oh yeah! Damned shame that the boy lied like this. Don Lemon was kinda heated last night when talking about it. And he knows Jussie. Said that Jussie done squandered the goodwill of many people with this. Don was jive heated.

In response to Reply # 387


  

          

f you’re confused about an ongoing avalanche of incidents concerning race and identity, you’re far from alone. So I’ll try my best to sort out some of this. Too often people leading the conversations don’t have their facts right.

Take one of the many brouhahas involving Virginia’s Gov. Ralph Northam. In an interview with Gayle King for CBS, he asserted that the first known Africans in what would become the United States were indentured servants who, like thousands of Europeans, entered servitude for a defined number of years before being set free to pursue their version of the American dream. To that Ms. King said, “also known as slavery.”

While the governor is being skewered for sanitizing the truth, he was not completely wrong. The status of the 20 or so blacks who arrived in Virginia in 1619 is a matter of scholarly debate. But Ms. King was wrong, too: Indentured servitude and slavery were not the same thing.

Because the governor is caught up in a scandal involving whether he is the white guy in blackface on his page in a medical school yearbook, people are weighing in on what blackface is. They’re often missing a few critical facts. An actor wearing dark makeup to portray a black character is not the same as racists and fools applying shoe polish and red lipstick to mock blacks as a people with exaggerated sub-human features.

You might think that educators can guide us through these shoals, but sometimes they perpetuate the ignorance. Consider the Michigan professor who has lodged a formal complaint against Wayne State University in Detroit. He says that by hosting a summer workshop for black girls that aims to stoke their interest in computer coding, the university discriminates against white boys in violation of federal law.

The professor needs to go back to school — but not the Winston Churchill High School in Potomac, where a bunch of kids in one of Maryland’s best high schools thought it was funny to trade Willy Wonka-type golden passes giving the bearers permission to use the n-word.

Lunacy struck the Grammys earlier this month when Jennifer Lopez performed a tribute to Motown. Because she is Latina, the Twittersphere immediately took her to task for appropriating “black” music. Huh? Smokey Robinson, the singer who helped create Motown, reminded myopic critics that the company was founded “to always make quality music that the world can enjoy.” Motown thrived because of its crossover appeal. “You’re trying to set us back a hundred years,” Mr. Robinson said to race purists. “Don’t call yourself loving Motown if you’re a hater and spreading the same bigotry that you so strongly oppose coming at you from others.”

And while we’re talking entertainment, who knows what the truth will turn out to be with the actor Jussie Smollet? He reported being the victim of a racist and homophobic assault in Chicago, but new information suggests Mr. Smollett may have staged the attack. If he did manipulate a gullible public, he’d be in good company. Think of all those white folks who have claimed that black men of their imaginations killed their spouses and their children or committed sexual assault. White people will likely believe white people who say a black man violated a white woman. Black people will likely believe black people who say, as Mr. Smollett did, that a noose was involved in an assault.

Here’s the thing: For us to “get over it,” as so many readers insist I should do, we have to confront “it.” That requires homework and soul work. We have to be honest, which leaves us exposed.

Consider poor Liam Neeson. The actor tried to explain his painstaking evolution from a period when his rage was focused on black men — only to be labeled a racist. That does not encourage honesty, as some commentators have begun to note.

The problem is there are too few safe spaces. People are quick to judge, quick to label, quick to assume the worst. But without open minds, empathy, an affinity for justice and a willingness to let go of old beliefs, we will never get beyond “it.”

So stay tuned as I keep “it” front and center, hoping to turn diatribe into dialogue.

is aired and spewed in public via social media, real news outlets, and in the barbershop.

It's one the reasons I've given up explaining anything to just about anybody. Most times, I won't even discuss it with those closest to me.

I didn't care for JLo's performance because she can't sing; not because she's not Black. I agree with Smokey too.

Northam and them damned kids in MoCo can kick rocks and eat a bag of dilznicks.

Poor Jussie's situation is on another level to me. Bro seems to have outright lied. I wonder if we'll ever know his motivation behind doing so.

smart. Maybe I was assuming he was the same as Jamal Lyons, who is portrayed as intelligent and thoughtful.

There were a bunch of different ways he could have pulled this off in the way he wanted (using a burner phone, having the brothers maybe go far away from Chicago to buy the props, etc.)

That they wouldn't try to find who did it?
In the surveillance state of any big city, how could you not expect the "attackers" to not be identified and their links to you easily exposed?

In response to Reply # 411


  

          

and that that footage would be enough and that they wouldn't feel any need to dig into his side of the story, at all.

But when he staged it at the wrong angle for the camera to catch anything, there was no footage, so then they focused on him, which messed everything up.

And I see it a lot bubbling up on twitter.

Let's say we totally don't trust CPD which we don't.

There is still the glaring problem that JS identified the two men in the photo as definitely the people who attacked him and he also said they are white men. That's hard to get around.

Part of their point is he paid them to attack him like that’s part of their evidence but outside of a confession they don’t have proof that $3,500 wasn’t actually truly for training and thus evidence wouldn’t be as strong

But yes either way he’s lying saying it was white men when clearly they weren’t that doesn’t help neither does how would they know exactly when he went out at 2am if he didn’t tip them off?

Obviously it doesn’t add up but the check thing intrigued me.

I thought it was just my family but I was watching Assination of Gionni Versace which reminded me of Talented Mr. Ripley, which reminded me of my brother's brother-n-law and then this.

anyone else got one in the family?

And please don't let this thread turn homophobic. I am just asking whether it's a thing or just my family.

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/21/arts/television/jussie-smollett-arrest-salary-letter.html

By Sopan Deb and Jack Healy
Feb. 21, 2019

CHICAGO — Jussie Smollett, upset by his salary and seeking publicity, staged a fake assault on himself a week after writing himself a threatening letter, the Chicago police said Thursday after the “Empire” actor surrendered to face a charge of filing a false police report.

Eddie T. Johnson, the visibly angry Chicago police superintendent, said Mr. Smollett had taken advantage of the pain and anger of racism, draining resources that could have been used to investigate other crimes for which people were actually suffering.

“I just wish that the families of gun violence in this city got this much attention,” he said at a news conference in Chicago.

The superintendent seemed particularly upset by the fact that Mr. Smollett, he said, had arranged a fake assault that featured a noose hung around his neck. The police say the staged assault was carried out by two brothers to whom the actor had paid $3,500.

“Why would anyone — especially an African-American man — use the symbolism of a noose to make false accusations?” he asked. “How could someone look at the hatred and suffering associated with that symbol and see an opportunity to manipulate that symbol to further his own public profile?”

A representative for Mr. Smollett did not immediately respond to a request for comment Thursday. The actor has maintained that he did not do anything wrong.

he attack was reported to have occurred on Jan. 29. Mr. Smollett, who is black and openly gay, told the police that at roughly 2 a.m., two masked men attacked him on the 300 block of East Lower North Water Street in downtown Chicago. He said his assailants directed homophobic and racial slurs at him, put a rope around his neck and poured a chemical substance on him. Mr. Smollett said the assault occurred after he went to a Subway to pick up food. When the police arrived at Mr. Smollett’s apartment, he was still wearing the rope.

Mr. Smollett also told the police that as the attack occurred, he was on the phone with his manager, Brandon Z. Moore, who later corroborated the phone call to Variety. The actor was initially hesitant to inform the police because of his high-profile status, according to law enforcement. It was his friend, the choreographer Frank Gatson, who initially made the call.

But a team of investigators, looking at the case as a possible hate crime, could not find evidence to match Mr. Smollett’s story. The attack was not visible on surveillance cameras and there were no witnesses.

The report of Mr. Smollett’s being attacked spread quickly and a national outpouring of support quickly followed. Multiple 2020 Democratic presidential candidates weighed in to condemn Mr. Smollett’s purported assailants, as did President Trump, who called the incident “horrible,” and several advocacy groups offered aid.

In the days after Mr. Smollett reported his attack, the police released a surveillance image of two men thought to be potential persons of interest. The actor would later say in an interview broadcast on “Good Morning America” that he was convinced that these two were the men that attacked him.

On Feb. 13, the police detained Olabinjo and Abimbola Osundairo, two brothers and associates of Mr. Smollett’s, believing them to be the men in the images. Their home was raided by law enforcement. Through their lawyer, the brothers initially said they didn’t know why they were of interest to the police, but investigators changed their status from persons of interest to potential suspects publicly. But the story took another twist: The brothers told the police that they had been paid by Mr. Smollett to stage the attack, and detectives released them without charges.

Skepticism over the story existed from the beginning — particularly from conservative commentators who found Mr. Smollett’s story implausible — because of the lack of evidence. Outwardly, the police repeatedly said they were treating Mr. Smollett as a victim and that they had no reason to doubt his story. Mr. Smollett acknowledged the suspicion in some corners in his first public statement about the incident, which came on Feb. 1, when he said through his publicist: “I am working with authorities and have been 100 percent factual and consistent on every level. Despite my frustrations and deep concern with certain inaccuracies and misrepresentations that have been spread, I still believe that justice will be served.”

In the “Good Morning America” interview, which was broadcast on Feb. 14, Mr. Smollett said to Robin Roberts, “It feels like if I had said it was a Muslim, or a Mexican, or someone black, I feel like the doubters would have supported me much more.”

Even so, the Chicago Police Department was still investigating the case as a possible hate crime until late last week, when, Superintendent Johnson said, the police began considering Mr. Smollett as possibly culpable. Mr. Smollett was charged on Wednesday.

Isn't this something that the police department of Chicago controls outside of this whole incident? How long have people been getting gunned down in Chicago?

To be clear, I'm not siding with this Jussie dude or whatever his name is at all, but this really stood out to me.

more about what's plaguing Chicago.

But nope. I think he's referring to all of the outcry and national media presence. Like this dude been on the cover of magazines, a morning show appearance, and on the tongue of national politicians. For real, it's been crazy.

And all because the bamma wanted to get more money. He need to fire his agent and sign with Roc Nation or something.

Edit: Roc Nation got bammas like Jim Jones out here being kinda relevant with today's youth.

Is that from the brothers? I'm assuming Jussie didn't tell CPD this. Or maybe he did since it appears this dude isn't a Mensa member.

You can see them on twitter getting tied into knots and doing good old fashion whataboutism. For example:

"Wondering whether Jussie will now get a @TODAYshow interview like Ryan Lochte did after he admitted to lying about being held up by gun point in Brazil during the Olympics. Just curious.

And will he receive the “boys will he boys” treatment that Lochte received? Just curious."


The thing is, most regular black folks are giving this the more appropiate amount of fcuks it deserves and reacting with either "fuck that guy" or jokes.

Getting twisted into knots by folks on the right trolling this is a bad look.

i'm assuming it's mostly people that were going hard from the beginning, but i'd say at least among people I know who seemed pretty invested in they story being true, they're also sharing jokey memes about him and just embracing a fuck that guy mindset.

seems people on twitter are going hardest on "Oh you wanna talk about Jussie but...?!!" twitter ca be the most hilarious at times, but it's also the least reasonable place this side of the comment section. it's just people reacting to reactions.

Just like on The Leftovers, he's talking to Yazz and then his empty clothing just falls to the ground. But then there's no evidence of that, so the cops think he's been killed or kidnapped by whoever. And then Yazz goes crazy because everyone thinks he whacked Jamal.

the brothers disputed that claim...under oath...in front of the grand jury.

https://www.tmz.com/2019/02/23/jussie-smollett-3500-dollars-money-attack-training/

i dont know how much bearing that would have on the overall legal trajectory...but chicago pd asserting something like that without evidence or corroboration from your only 2 witnesses seems like the type of fuckup that could put a case in doubt.

this *is* chicago pd. just judging by a lot of the careless leaks that turned out to not be true...it wouldnt surprise me if there was more sloppiness in their investigation that imperil the chances of an indictment or subsequent conviction.

itd be kinda funny to see all of this media attention just for a blown collar on a simple false report charge.

In response to Reply # 488


          

...and i dont know why they would lie under oath to a grand jury especially after they turned their phones in and have been cooperating...then its a legally tenuous claim that the defense can exploit to show a biased/overzealous police department.

i think chicago pd jumped that gun at least on this one specific point.

even if it was some indirect payout scheme...if you dont have an admission or corroborating evidence from a witness...you cant just assume. especially when the corroborating witness *contradicts* it.

$3,500.00 isn't THAT much money, are these dudes desperate enough to go on the run from the Police/possibly face deportation for less than $2000.00 a piece?

and police arent charging them (theyve been cooperating with them).

the hoax itself isnt illegal. its the filing of a false police report (which jussie is being charged with).

theres really no reason for them to lie about the payment.

he isnt in the clear. but it sounds like chicago pd made the claim without having clear evidence to back it up yet.

shit like this is used by a defense team to assert a biased/tainted jury pool.

chicago pd might have been better off waiting for the indictment to come back before holding that lil press junkie without rock solid evidence.

that would have come out in a trial that they wanted to avoid.

Otherwise, dropping all the charges when they were so adamant about bringing charges in the first place makes no sense.

chicago paid out over $110 million last year alone for police misconduct. after seeing the leaks, police chief press tour, etc...you already know where this departmental shit show was heading.

even the fbi said the police were getting too overzealous and proclaiming evidence that hadnt been properly vetted yet.

then you have the 2 brothers testifying under oath to a grand jury that a key part of the case that the police chief stated as fact was not even true.

its funny to watch rahm grandstanding about this miscarriage of justice when he helped cover up a murder for a year.

TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*

Dude could have ties to illegal drug activity, Hollywood prostitution rings, a secret pee tape on the DA, etc.

Plus, CPD probably made some missteps along the course of the investigation. That gave her the "out" to drop the charges, within the confines of what was legally permissible. Ultimately he doesn't pay an extra dime, outside of any legal fees defending himself against whatever lawsuit they bring against him.

Do they always seek to get their costs back when charges are dropped?
